The Sweet Poison

Adrianna was embarrassed at her sister's question that reeked of greediness. She didn't answer. 

Kayla came to her senses and said, "Sorry sister. This is a beautiful room. That's what I meant to say." 

"What do want?" asked Dmitri straight away. 

"I have come to meet Adrianna," she answered sweetly. 

Dmitri frowned as he glared at her. He remembered the way Kayla had sabotaged Adrianna's dress. 

"Speak," he spat out. 

Kayla flinched, but she gathered up her courage and spoke softly, "Adrianna, I am sorry about what I did to you in the past. Please, will you forgive your sister?"

Adrianna gaped at her sister as Dmitri scorned. 

"I know I have made a lot of mistakes, but I want to correct them now. As a token of my love, would you let me help you dress you in the evening?" she asked, lowering her head and making a sad face so that she would look genuine.
